Very proud mamma

My C got baptized this last Sunday night.  It's been a few years of explaining to him that this is something he needed to do.  But, not surprisingly, he was very cautious and wanted to know all the details first.  So rewind to LAST Sunday night.  We had communion.  C did not have a class during church.  So he was sitting in with us.  Right before communion started, I leaned over to remind him that he could not participate (something he had been told before).  It took a little reminding from me, but he remembered   And then his next question was, "what do I need to do to participate next time?"  After a little explaining, he and Daddy met with our youth pastor after church and got it all set up for this past Sunday night.

Sunday night there was one baptized before C.  Once C got in the water, the youth pastor told this story.  "Last week C and his dad told me they needed to talk to me after church.  My first thought was "oh dear.  Did C steal something and he's coming to confess to me?"  Really.  That was your first thought.  But then he went on to say how much he appreciated C and that C is a good kid; he excels in whatever he does.  I really like our youth pastor.  Crazy guy.
